A member asked:
I use anti persperant in my groin daily. i got some inside my penis today, will this cause an infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: Unless you have pain, swelling, redness, it should not cause an infection. I normally however do not recommend antiperspirant in the groin. How about trying powder?
